It is literally impossible to be a woman.
You are so beautiful and so smart,
and it kills me that you don't think
you're good enough.
Like,
we have to always be extraordinary,
but somehow we're always
doing it wrong.
You have to be thin, but not too thin.
And you can never say
you want to be thin.
You have to say
you want to be healthy,
but also you have to be thin.
You have to have money,
but you can't ask for money
because that's crass.
You have to be a boss,
but you can't be mean.
You have to lead,
but you can't squash
other people's ideas.
You're supposed to love
being a mother,
but don't talk about your kids
all the damn time.
You have to be a career woman,
but also always be looking out
for other people.
You have to answer for men's
bad behavior, which is insane.
But if you point that out,
you're accused of complaining.
You're supposed to stay pretty for men,
but not so pretty that you tempt them
too much or that you threaten
other women because you’re supposed
to be a part of the sisterhood,
but always stand out
and always be grateful.
But never forget that
the system is rigged.
So find a way to acknowledge that,
but also always be grateful.
You have to never get old,
never be rude,
never show off,
never be selfish,
never fall down,
never fail,
never show fear,
never get out of line.
It's too hard, it's too contradictory,
and nobody give you a medal
or says thank you.
And it turns out, in fact,
that not only are you doing
everything wrong, but also
everything is your fault.
I'm just so tired
of watching myself
and every
single other woman
tie herself into knots
so that people will like us.
And if all of that
is also true for a doll
just
representing a woman,
then
I don't even know.
